Another day another mile…
… not really. I pushed yesterday’s run off until tonight. Last night we had our not-quite annual company dinner. Ate at Buca Di Beppo. Definitely a good time.
Anyway, so I did the Day two of the post below. Same run as the first day. It felt pretty good. About 2/3rd of the way through, when I did the 60 seconds of jogging, it felt much more like I hit my pace and got into a rhythm. Starting to feel more natural than forced. I also ran around the block (which I know to be exactly one mile) instead of a random course. I wanted to have an idea of just how far I run/walk in 25 minutes with this program. So I’m right at about 2.25 miles. That’s not all running though. So my running pace doesn’t suck that bad! 
The cool thing is… before I started this plan, I was absolutely DYING after 1 mile. Granted, I was running the whole thing at a pretty good clip, but it makes me feel better that I am doubling that distance, even if I am walking, and feeling much better during/afterwards. I was afraid that this plan would be too simple, taking too much of a step backwards… but I think it really is a good thing. My muscles need to build back up, but more than that, I need to get into good cardiovascular shape.
Still no heart monitor. Hopefully tomorrow. *crosses fingers*
I’ll probably run again on Saturday, that way I can start next week off on Monday. We have some crappy weather coming up, I hope it cooperates.
I’ll try to make a non-Workout post soon too. I have a TONNNNNN of pictures that I want to post. If anyone knows of a blogging program where I can separate the posts out into tagged categories, but make it so that you can click to see each category, I would be interested. I know a lot of people could care less about the workout info. So it’d be nice to separate that out without having to do a completely second blog for it.
Oh yeah! Have you seen the new Apple iPhone? That thing is SICK!
